Overview

About 31 Guildford Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

31 Guildford Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 4EA). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in April 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2007–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £597,000 sits 138.8% above the 2007 sale of £249,950.
